I'm a bit worried because I've noticed small red spots on the inner head of my penis. They showed up about 23 days after I had oral sex, and they're giving me a slight sensation. Could you please let me know what this might be and what steps I should take?

The small red spots on the inner head of your penis, accompanied by a slight sensation, may be caused by several factors related to oral sex. Here are some possible explanations:

Possible Causes

Irritation or Allergic Reaction: Your partner's mouth or saliva might have caused irritation or an allergic reaction, leading to red spots and discomfort.

Cuts or Micro-Trauma: Minor cuts or micro-trauma during oral sex can cause red spots and sensitivity.

STDs or STIs: Certain sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) or infections (STIs), such as herpes, syphilis, or gonorrhea, can cause red spots or sores on the genitals.

Balanitis: This is an inflammation of the glans penis, often caused by poor hygiene, irritation, or infection.

Next Steps

Consult a Doctor: Schedule an appointment with your primary care physician, urologist, or a dermatologist to evaluate the red spots and determine the underlying cause.

Get Tested for STDsSTIs: Even if you're in a monogamous relationship, it's essential to get tested for STDsSTIs to rule out any potential infections.

Practice Good Hygiene: Maintain good genital hygiene, and avoid any further irritation or trauma to the affected area.

Abstain from Sexual Activity: Avoid any sexual activity until you've consulted a doctor and received proper guidance.

I'm 16 and have been masturbating quite a bit, sometimes up to three times a day. I've noticed that the veins on my penis are becoming more pronounced and seem to be multiplying. Every day, a new vein seems to pop up, and a couple of them are really thick and very visible, even when I'm not aroused. Could you help me understand why this is happening?

ITS NORMAL

I'm really troubled by nightfall and it's been going on for 10 years now. I've tried various Ayurvedic and Unani medicines, but nothing seems to work. Can you help me understand why this is happening and what I can do to cure it?

Nightfall is a normal function of the body. It is the body's way of discharging the semen which gets collected. Don't fall into a trap by going for different types of treatments and waste your money. It is a natural process of the body and no medicine is required for it.

I've been considering taking sildenafil zenegra 100mg every day and I'm wondering if it could change the consistency of my sperm. Will it become more watery instead of its usual creamy and thick texture?

Using sildenafil (Zenegra) daily doesn't directly affect the consistency of sperm, which is typically creamy and thick. However, some men may experience changes in semen volume or appearance as a side effect, but it's not a common or expected outcome. If you're concerned, it's best to discuss this with your doctor for personalized advice.
